My mother has passed through the valley. She died peacefully in her favorite chair surrounded by loved ones. I cannot say it’s easy or will be easy. I’ve been a caregiver for a long long time. But, she died the way she wanted. Not in a nursing home or hospital, [...]

The damage done…..
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged life, Mum, soundtrack on May 17, 2009 | 13 Comments »
No, not by the needle, but by the healthcare system in general. Mom is back in the hospital and furious with me. Not worth going into, but still hard to deal with. I will not be posting for a bit. Not because I don’t have anything to say, but because I’m so bloody tired I [...]

Classic politically incorrect, but very very funny, comedy sketch from “Get Smart”.
This always makes me laugh. Of course, we have already established that I have a sophomoric sense of humor.
So, this is the end of another week and the beginning of another weekend. YAY!!!! Mom is doing pretty darned well. She’s [...]

Hi all. Hope you have had a great 6 days. I’ve tried to stay updated on your posts, but have not commented as much as I normally do. I’m kinda tired. Mom is home with a 24/7 heart monitor. She is exhausted, but pleased to be home. She is [...]

Mom is still in the hospital. She is in the heart hospital. They are taking good care of her and I had the late shift today and tomorrow I’ll be there at 6:30 or 7:00 a.m
She is doing fairly well and we should find out if she needs a pacemaker or not.
Thank you [...]

I apologize to each and all for my lame posts this week. Mom was taken to the hospital Wednesday morning and has been there since. We still don’t know what happened, but are hoping and praying she can come home today (her 83d birthday).
Since I’m pretty tired and heading to the hospital at [...]
Random Wednesday……with a sore butt

Yep. It’s still hurts, but I can tell I’m about done with it. It will be uncomfortable for the next few months, yet (I can’t bring myself to say but;-P) I can tell there is much less pain and I have a cushion that will make hard chairs endurable. Sitting for long still [...]
Oh, I am so glad it’s Monday

The weekend was a good one. Please don’t misinterpret my Monday excitement. I just hurt myself and since I don’t feel good enough to do stuff around the house, I might as well go to work. You know the feeling? I fell backwards on the deck and bruised my tailbone. I bruised my [...]

According to Wikipedia (and, we all know that that is infallible), Friday is:
“.. connected with the planet Venus. This associates Friday with love, peace, and relaxation, as well as with emotional intensity and quashed dreams. It is also connected with the Astrological signs Libra and Taurus. “
Don’t you feel enlightened and, at the same time, [...]
